The Koberg is located in the eastern Hintertaunus. In the Taunus Nature Park, it rises directly south of Haintchen, a district of the municipality of Selters (Taunus). The Eisenbach stream flows around the hill to the east and north. Around 0.8 km to the south is the 461.8 m high Suterkopf.
The wooded Koberg is part of the Feldberg-Langhals-Pferdskopf-Scholle, which separates the Emsbachtal from the Weiltal. Together with the Suterkopf and the Blumenstück (445 m), it forms the last north-western mountains of this plateau.
The Koberg belongs to the Taunus main natural unit group (No. 30), in the main unit Östlicher Hintertaunus (302) to the Pferdskopf-Taunus natural area (302.6).
